I’ve arrived home now after a rather traumatic experience!
But all your support has got me through 🥰
As this was a difficult procedure having surgery after 10 weeks of injury !
Normally would only operate up to 4 weeks!
Surgery went well they reattached my bicep that was hanging on a thread 🙏
The hospital were great as we were up there every day , getting bandage changed.
Then my whole arm was black and blue and in soo much agony .
They did an ultrasound to see if it was blood clots , thankfully it wasn’t .
I had to inject my stomach everyday to prevent blood clots .
Then stomach was black and blue too .
The physio would come to my hotel room twice a day !
Unfortunately I can’t train , cycle or drive for sometime .
It is quite difficult to only have use of one arm and was not allowed get the arm wet for weeks .
Will have ongoing physio for the next few months and no lifting for months .
I was alone out there , but made lovely friends with the Irish people also getting surgery done !
A lovely lady mags offering to wash my hair and cutting up my food and do my injections for me .
A legend and we’re still in touch, she checked up on me every single day, if I needed anything!
The wheelchair assistance was excellent on both sides !
I’m on the road to recovery and the kindness of strangers 🥰
Thanks to everyone around the world for your support kindness and love ❤️
My phone hasn’t stopped with everyone’s concerns and support , feeling all the love thank you 🙏🥰💪💪 ❤️

I’m 52 years old in a few weeks
It does get harder to stay in shape and fit !
I’ve had a load of my clients drop body weight , build lean muscle!
Some have lost up to 4 stone .

Thankfully Fiona has let me share her amazing story of success 💪💪
Well Fiona has been with me the last 4 years, struggled with her weight!
It affected her mental health!
We trained and talked a lot about this and gave her huge support!
Fiona was up to 80 kg at one stage , and now is 67 kg
That’s a loss of 13kg / 2 stone !
It wasn’t easy but with Fiona training 4 days a week with me and a lifestyle change!
I could not be a prouder coach !
Her whole mindset her physique her confidence, I’ve never seen Fiona so happy and content in all the time I know her !
Her physique is amazing and ripped !
Fiona trains hard for this !
This wasnt an easy journey
Fiona has this now , it’s over a year now she has maintained her weight and lifestyle change !
She has made it !
I’m soo proud of each and every one of my clients in their own special way

In recovery thanks to everyone for all your support and kind messages 🥰

Been a rough 10 weeks, been in agony and been messed around by hospitals in Dublin .
Thankfully got fast tracked for an emergency appointment as I have a high grade Disital Bicep tear , which after 4 weeks of not being treated is a very high risk of rupturing .
The Bicep was hanging on by 2 threads .
The team have been amazing over here in Spain .
Surgery went well, now for physio twice a day for recovery.
I’ve been told to relax , will have be a Netflix marathon
Thanks again for everyone’s kind support 🥰

Another amazing day out with the RM Warriors
Our 2nd year back at yoga picnic
Brilliant day out for everyone
Sun didn’t shine but we all did with so many chats and laughs!
We started off with yoga in the SUP boards in the lake Ennell , which was surprisingly warm !
My favourite was the whirlpool bath and the swishing
A guy in the sauna swishes us and cleans us with scented branches , an amazing ritual and sea salt scrub
Loads to do here
Drumming ,cooking , menopause, mental health talks
Met my favourite tv personality Deric
